1205.6098 (Matthias Steinmetz)
Matthias Steinmetz
The ongoing large spectroscopic surveys of the Milky Way such as SEGUE and RAVE have enabled us to take a fresh look at the structure of the Galactic thin and thick disks, and how their structure fits within the framework of structure formation via hierarchical clustering. In this article I will summarize some recent results mainly based in the RAVE survey with respect to the structure of the Galactic disks, their possible origin as well as indications of substructure and asymmetries.
